Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Rippingale, Lincolnshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Rippingale, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you can’t clean out
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops

Common questions in Rippingale
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Rippingale?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Common problems we fix in Rippingale
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
